Before You Begin
To use this adapter with the Solaris OS, the minimum firmware version must be 2.7.8130.
# firmwareflash -l -c IB
Look for the revision number that appears after the Firmware revision string. If more than one IB-HCA device is displayed, look for the Node Image GUID that matches the GUID displayed on the physical GUID label of the adapter being installed. See Node GUID.
If the firmware version is not at 2.7.8130 or higher, you must update the firmware. Only update the firmware on your adapter with files specifically approved for the Sun product.
# firmwareflash -d device_path output -f firmware_bin_file
